Going Out with Less Than a Bang
These were the last years of the first generation Mustang, and sadly they were also the worst years of the generation. They were bigger flatter and less powerful. The reason they were bigger was to make room for fords new huge engine, but these new engines were forced to meet the new emissions standars of the time. Thus the cars were severly underpowered and not very well liked by the consumers.
